The purpose of this presentation is to share with colleagues an excellent
collaborative teaching/learning tool: The Web Page Project. In Library
Research Methods, a 3 credit, upper-division undergraduate course cross
listed under Environmental Studies, Women's Studies and Instruction &
Curricular Studies, students learn to create web pages. The Web Page
Project allows them to explore technology, to critically evaluate sources
of information, to work in small groups, and to present information to
one another.

The nature of this session is practical: it will be a one hour seminar
teaching people how to teach students (or any other group) to create web
pages. Attendees will create a web page during the session, even if
they've never done so before. The basics of html, finding graphics on
the Web & incorporating them into web pages, and evaluation of web
sources will be covered. Excellent hand-outs will be provided.
